    It's tempting to put them all in robot mode as well, they look so good as a team.

    That Superion does look pretty nice.

    Looking much better than that hot glue mess we've seen previously.

    I'm still not liking the tiny feet.
    Any figure that comes with swords demands wrist articulation.

    In a previous video there was some conjecture about a Devastator seen obscured in the background. It's back but clearly a G1 toy next to a G1 Defensor.

    Now for something else to speculate on... about the 17 second mark of the video you can see the designer's desktop has some artwork on it. It's also on the wall behind them in the two shot but the close up gives you a better view.

    Possible spoiler alert if it's something from the upcoming comics

    It's not art I recognise, not that Livio poster/cover that's been used elsewhere, and as well as having this new Menasor toy on it, and also has Technobots! It also looks like Shockwave is in front of Menasor shooting at Superion. Does anyone recognise this from somewhere else? It could possible be a spread from upcoming IDW comics?

    Desktop art with Scattershot, Afterburner and Lightspeed:


    On the wall:


    On the wall blown up. Doesn't help much.

    Superion is definitely the best of the two. Like others have said, Menasor looks all leggy. Can't wait until they come out.

    It would be pretty grand. Very imposing if he's made of six voyager. He'd be pretty expensive here though, if we paid voyager RPP altogether.

    Well I hope its not going to be exactly like that, titan class is way to big. I would prefer it to be a similar scale to the other combiner teams. I would assume if they sell Devastator as a boxset it's because all the figures might not be in the traditional scale classes. The four limbs could be large deluxes. Two voyagers could make up the torso and shoulders. When compared to other combiners, Devastator could be 3-4 inches taller because of longer limbs, and be bulkier due to a larger torso and shoulders.
